title: Critical review of recent developments in fluorescence detection for capillary electrophoresis.
abstract: Recent developments in capillary electrophoresis with fluorescence detection are reviewed. Instrumental advances have led to increased sensitivity and, therefore, a growing number of applications. Capillary electrophoresis has been coupled with various techniques to achieve multi-dimensional separations. Other advances have focused on temporal resolution when sampling from biological environments, increased sample throughput especially for DNA analysis, and fast separation times. New technologies including chip and channel electrophoretic separations with fluorescence detection are also discussed.
